I bought three big heavy old movie projectors and two large empty film
spools and one large film can that is about 17 inches in diameter at the
Goodwill thrift store this afternoon.I paid $20.00 plus Mississippi RIPP
OFF sales taxes for all of the items.Inside of the film can is a
film,Martin Luther,(that is what the label on the film can cover says)
total running time 105 minutes.Two of the old movie projectors were made
by Kodak (so was the Martin Luther film on black and white safe film)
and the other big old heavy (they each weigh about 35 pounds or more,I
think) movie projector was made by Bell & Howell.One of the Kodak movie
projectors looks to me like it dates back to the late 1940's and on the
Bell & Howell movie projector is a label which says,Christians With A
Mission.Congregational Methodist Church.I might be interested in selling
or trading the items for something I like.Just because I paid $20.00
plus Mississippi RIPP OFF sales taxes for the items doesn't mean I will
sell them cheap or trade them for something cheap because I know they
are worth a considerable amount of money.There might be some similar
items for sell on eBay.I have no idea of what the items are worth but I
am going to find out first before I would get rid of them.

You may have something of historical importance there. Be careful
with that film.
